Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1475906A1] A data stream (b(t)) including high ("1") and low ("0") logical states is transmitted over an optical link (16) by means of an optical source (15) adapted to be driven (14) via said the data stream to generate an optical signal for transmission over the optical link (16). The optical signal includes optical pulses generated at the occurrence of high logical ("1") states in said data stream (b(t)). The input data stream (b(t)) is coded (2000) into a coded data stream (B(t)) prior to the transmission over the optical link (16). The coding step minimises the logical high states ("1") in the coded data stream (B(t)), and the optical source (15) is driven by means of the coded data stream (B(t)) wherein the number of logical high states ("1") has been minimised. <IMAGE>
